AUTONOMY ENHANCES SECURE, SCALABLE SEARCH FOR SHAREPOINT SERVER 2007 AS MICROSOFT ENTERPRISE SEARCH PARTNER
More Than 500 IDOL Functions Now Available As SharePoint Web Parts
Cambridge, UK and San Francisco, Calif. - June 7th, 2007 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced it is delivering its Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL) to SharePoint Server 2007 customers. IDOL provides a flexible framework to address their enterprise-wide structured and unstructured information processing needs by offering more than 500 advanced functions as SharePoint Web Parts. The large and growing volumes of users and rapid increases in content in SharePoint deployments necessitate the highest levels of security and scalability, which Autonomy delivers.
Microsoft SharePoint's secure and scalable search coupled with Autonomy's IDOL functionality includes:
Mapped Security, delivering sub-document level security without requiring communication with the third-party content repository at query time;
Modular, multi-threaded architecture, proven to scale to tens of billions of documents and terabytes of information while delivering high performance;
Over 500 advanced functions such as automatic hyperlinking, automatic categorization, and automatic profiling;
Autonomy Federated Search for SharePoint, enabling customers to index and search all content inside and outside the SharePoint environment;
Autonomy's Connectors to over 1000 file formats including PDF and Blob support, audio and video, as well as structured formats.
"Security is a key differentiator for Autonomy. IDOL offers 'mapped security' and near real-time synchronization of security entitlements with source content repositories, such as SharePoint, making it a great fit for highly secure search scenarios," commented Matthew Brown, Forrester Research, Inc., in his June 2006 report "Autonomy is a Leader in Enterprise Search Platforms".
"By integrating Autonomy and SharePoint, customers can extend and capitalize on their existing investments in these leading technologies," commented David Truitt, president and chief executive officer of systems integrator Microlink. "The combination of SharePoint and Autonomy's secure, scalable search capabilities provides organizations with the most comprehensive view of the information stored within the enterprise."
"We are pleased to bring the benefits of Autonomy's highly scalable and secure IDOL platform to SharePoint customers," commented Dr. Mike Lynch, chief executive officer of Autonomy Corporation. "Autonomy's advanced search capabilities enable customers to capitalize on their SharePoint investments while enabling the accommodation of future technologies."
"We're pleased to be working with Autonomy to help our customers maximize their investments in Office SharePoint Server. The native search capabilities of SharePoint provide a secure way for organizations to find people and information anywhere in the organization—regardless of whether that information lives in SharePoint or other business systems. Autonomy's IDOL Web Parts extend SharePoint Search to support additional, specialized scenarios that require advanced features like automatic categorization and multimedia search. It's a win-win for both companies and for our customers and partners," commented Thomas Rizzo, Director, SharePoint at Microsoft.
